Sorry about the lapse in postings. Between work and family I haven’t been left with much time for much else.

I’ll see if I can be better about it.

Anyway, I thought I’d update the list of lullabies that I sing to M every now and then.

“Edelweiss” The Sound of Music

- This is my latest go-to song for putting M to bed. It’s from my mother’s favorite film, so has a bit of sentimental significance to me, plus it is super easy to remember, and one of those songs that you can pretty much sing over and over and over again. These days it is my closer, the last song that I sing to her at hight and the song that I sing to her repeatedly as she finally drifts asleep.

“Joy to the World” Three Dog Night

- For some reason, M really seems to mellow out when I sing this song to her. Which is fortunate since I actually know the lyrics… well. Some of them anyway.

“Beyond the Sea” Bobby Darin

- I don’t sing this one too often these days… mainly because I used to sing this to M during bath-time and these days she enjoys bath time too much to fall asleep.
